Teaching knife skills early to be safer in the kitchen.

My First Knife is designed to help older children and young teens learn proper knife skills. It is a tool not a toy, and usage must be supervised. The knife is packaged with an instructional booklet featuring diagrams, illustrations, and “how to” steps and tips on how to teach children basic knife skills and safe use. It also includes instructions on organizing and preparing the cutting surface and how to grip a knife using the specially designed “claw” grip.

Product Features:

• Designed for ages 9 and up; for use with adult supervision.
• High–carbon stainless–steel blade with serrated edge (safer than a straight edge).
• Rounded blade tip and heel for safety, textured polypropylene
• Handle appropriate for right or left handed people
